RE: What's the strangest thing you've seen while bowhunting?
 
I was sitting in my tree stand early that morning, when I heard something that sounds like a baby crying. I retreived my flashlight out of my bag. Started looking around to find where the noise was coming from. Low and behold I looked to my right, on a tree limb right next to me and there was this Bobcat ( I think). need less to say It scared the living S### out of me. If ya'll could picture a #230 grown man trying to get away from this creature, by any means possible. I came out of this ok, with only couple scapes. Not from the cat but from the tree, coming down likea bull in a china cabinet. Needless to say i was done hunting that day.

I’ve seen a few things that I think are cool/scary.


Saw a Hawk kill and eat a squirrel.
Saw a red fox jump at a turkey, but not get him.
Saw deer mating.
Had small birds land on me and my equipment more than once.
(Scary one) After dusk I got down and started back, when I heard what sounded like a six-year-old girl getting murdered in the woods, screaming like crazy and running through the woods in a circle around me at like 30 mph. Apparently it was a fox. I would have paid $5000 for a cheap shotgun at that point.[/ol]

ORIGINAL: kenman

Atwenty-something couple going for it on a blanket about 50 yards from my tree. I let them finish up and then whistled and made a clapping motion with my hands. Never seen two people hi-tail it out of an area so quickly!!!
That is absolutely hysterical.
That is why, when I am going for a "walk" with a lady, I stay away from primo hunting areas.
Never know WHO can be watchin.[8D]

I had a robin land on my arrow.

I had a chipmunk crawl up on my boot.

I saw a crippled doe (who was obviously the matriarch) have a sparring match with a decent 6 point during the rut. Even though she was missing the use of a rear leg, she initiated the "match" and seemed to get the better of him!

I also watched a red fox catch a mouse and the REPEATEDLY turn him loose and give the mouse time to turn away WHILE THE FOX TURNED HIS BACK! He caught and released the mouse about half a dozen times or so and then left without hurting the mouse. I watched a very wet and very pi$$ed off mouse run back into the woods

Turned my head just in time to see a big horned owl backflapping to stop from landing on my head. Also watched a pair of hound dogs drown a racoon.
